Chica2o's judicial Election a Setbacl
For Political ChicanerY.

Chica2o's judicial Election a Setback
For Political Chicanery.
CHICAGO, June 6-lSpecial Telegram to
the BEE IA heavy vote in the judicial cleo
ton was hardly to be expected In the contest
of to-day, for although the outcome was
matter Of profound Importance to the COM
munity, and real anxiety was felt throughout
the city and county as to whether the the dig
nifty and character Of the bench would be sus-
tanned or demoralzed, 1t appears to be diff
cult to bring to the polls on an occasion like
tins that very class of voters whose interests
arc most deeply concerned. The socialist
and anarchist element have been straining
every nerve to call out their forces and enter
tanned great hopes OF accessOns TO their
ranks from the large number of idle work
ingmen in the city. The fight to-day was
over two men. The citizens association put
up ticket with o. IL. Horton, X. S. Will
hanson and A. N. Westerman for the repub-
lican candidates, and julius s. Grinnell,
Frank Baker ana Richard w. Clifford as
democrats. This ticket was endorsed by the
bar association, the Union Veteran league
and the Cook County Labor league. The
party ticket put up by the democratic and re-
publican county central committees, endorsed
by the political assembly of the united labor
party. differed from the citizens ticket in
Oul1 hC liuCHIuo OIlgl-
nally nominated Clayton f. Crafts, Adolf
Kraus and William j. English as democrats
Immediately after came out the story OF the
$50.O00 price for nominations, which created
. deep sensation and resulted in the citizens
ticket being named. There being no charges
against the republican nominees they were
placed on the new ticket, while Grinnell,
Clifford and Baker were substituted for the
democrats. Crafts, soon after, declined the
nomination OF the machine and they were
compelled to place Baker on their ticket In
his place. The fight, therefore, to-day, has
been Grinnell and Clifford vs. Kraus and
English. The various labor political assem-
blies which arc dominated by the sOcialis st
leaders, yesterday denounced Grinnell IN the
most vigorous terms for his work In the
anarchist cases and other matters, and thous-
ands of copies OF papers charging him with
failure to do his duty In the prosecution of
the Pinkerton men who were guilty of the
murder OF Terence Begley at the stock yards
last fall. were distributed among the mem
bers of the united labor party clubs. An
other point raised by his opponents
was that he could not finish the
prosecution of the county "boodlers'' were

continually for some days. The opposition

machine, however, has been SO strong that
there has been but little doubt of their de-

Telephoning by Proxy.

Herr Muller, the manufacturer, had
| returned from his honeymoon trip.
and after week of cOnnubal bliss in
| the new home he woke to the neces-
sity of attending to his business, and
so with heavy heart he said good-by
to his little wife and proceeded to his
office, situated about mile from the
house. The long hours of separation
from the partner of his joys and sor-
| rows were, however, a severe trial TO
his fortitude, and he hit upon the
expedient of connecting the house and
his place of business by means of a
telephone wire. And now sweet
words of tenderest affection were ex-
changed between the loving couple
every hour of the day. A week later
the work of the office became more alb
sorbing, and our manufacturer felt
himself obliged to put stop to this
waste of time; besides he began to find
that Ludmilla's cajoleries were grow
ing somewhat tedious and common
place. But he would not have his
wife suspect this for the world. His in
ventive genius found way out of the
difficulty. There was an old servant
of the firm, Herr Kobes by name, al
most past work, but retained to do
odd jobs about the place. He was a
queer old bachelor, with a red nose
and romantic turn of mind; for he
was an adept at whispering soft moth
ings in the ears of young ladies, and
fondiy imagined the whole of the fair
sex were in love with him. Besides,
the tone of his voice had a striking re-
semblance to that of his principal.
Herr Muller gave this man certain pri-
vate instructions, and next morning
Herr Kobes was duly installed at the
telephone and engaged in an amorous
conversation with his invisible part
ner, while his principal was busy with
his correspondence. Quite contrary
to Muller's expectation, Ludmilla ap-
peared to take increasing delight in
her husbands conversation, and the
apparatus was kept constantly going.
The manufacturer could now attend to
his affairs without interruption, while
at the same time his wife had no rea-
son to complain of his GOODNESS. This
state of things was highly satisfactory,
One day, having a business call to
make in the neighborhood of his dwell
ing-house, he left the office earlier
than usual, quite oblivious of old
Kobes and the telephone, and after he
had done his errand he went straight
home, as it was hardly worth while re-
turning to the Office at that late hour.
But what was his establishment on en-
tering the room to see his wife sitting
on the sofa deeply absorbed in the
latest novel, and at the telephone busy
talking with the gentleman at the Of
tce-Babette, the old cook!-FHegende

CATARRH CURE
A PRETTY INDIAN LEGEND.

A pretty Indian legend is current here
this season. Chaurauqua means "the
place of easy DEATH" and report says
this is how the lake secured its name.
An Indian maiden, mourning over the
death of her lover, wandered away from
her people seeking poisonous root. In
secluded spot on the lake shore she
found it, partook freely and lay down to
await death. The poison created delirium
and burning thirst. Her lover seemed
to come to her and offer fresh, cool
water, yet when she reached out her
hands for the grateful draught he van
ished. She dragged herself to the edge
of the lake, and STOPPING over to cool her
parched lips in the waves, she saw her
lover beneath the water holding up his
arms to her. Joyfully she threw herself
into the water and never was seen again.
